Overview

Most physicians are very familiar with the peer review process. But that process is often performed at the hospital, rather than the clinic level. In most states, clinics can establish a peer review process that enjoys the same protection as a hospital peer review committee. This session will discuss the basics of starting a peer review process and describe some of the benefits and potential problems of a peer review program. While there will be some information that will be helpful for hospitals and well-established peer review organizations, there will be considerable time spent on how clinics can use peer review as a tool to improve quality and manage risk.
